Scripture, with the Fathers beside it
The whole Bible in quiet type, and where a Father speaks to a verse, his word stands one touch away.
THREE TRANSLATIONS
The King James
The cadence the English-speaking Church has prayed for four centuries, the verses you already half-know by heart.
The Septuagint
The Greek Old Testament the apostles quoted and the Church still keeps, in the Brenton translation, with the books the Fathers read.
Plain modern English
For the passage you want to be sure you have understood, the World English Bible, clear and unadorned.
Your ribbon, your notes, your highlights, kept on your device, carried offline, and never read by anyone else.
The Fathers, one touch away
Read a verse, and where the Church has heard it deeply, a mark waits beside it. Touch it, and a Father speaks, not a note a model wrote, but the words of Chrysostom, Basil, the Cappadocians, in their classic editions, each with its source shown.
2,191 PLACES WHERE THE FATHERS SPEAK
“See how He heals the soul before the body: the palsy was but the fruit, the sins were the root.”
Threads through Scripture
The whole Bible, read as the Church reads it, every promise and shadow of the Old opening into Christ. The ladder Jacob saw, the bush that burned unconsumed, the ark, the throne of David: each a thread drawn to the One they foretold, and gathered at every feast.
“Beginning at Moses and all the prophets, He expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning Himself.”
People, Angels & Symbols
97 DOSSIERS
The faces and signs within Holy Scripture, from Adam to the nine orders of angels, each gathered into a single page.

68 BOOKS
How the Church received her Bible, the books, the timeline, and why the Bibles differ, told plainly.
